The Dominion of Silver Swan is a massive, socially progressive nation, notable for its absence of drug laws and spontaneously combusting cars. The hard-working, democratic population of 3.846 billion Silver Swanians live in a state of perpetual fear, as a complete breakdown of social order has led to the rise of order through biker gangs.

The tiny, liberal, pro-business, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Healthcare, and Welfare. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 7.1%.

The strong Silver Swanian economy, worth 159 trillion deniers a year, is driven almost entirely by the private sector, which is led by the Door-to-door Insurance Sales industry, with major contributions from Woodchip Exports, Information Technology, and Soda Sales. Average income is 41,494 deniers, but there is an enormous disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 258,474 per year while the poor average 2,848, a ratio of 90.7 to 1.

Organ donation rates are among the lowest in the region, genetic researchers have been expelled, the tenet of free speech is held dear, and raindances intended to summon storms instead attract tourists. Crime is a serious problem, with the police force struggling against a lack of funding and a high mortality rate. Silver Swan's national animal is the swan, which can occasionally be seen sifting through garbage in the nation's cities.

Silver Swan is ranked 208,985^th in the world and 4^th in Bree for Most Cultured, scoring 64 on the Snufflebottom-Wiggendum Pentatonic Scale.
